7 aminoactinomycin d 7 aad
7-aminoactinomycin D (7-AAD) is a fluorescent dye used in flow cytometry applications. It binds to DNA and can be used to stain and detect dead or dying cells.
2 protocols using 7 aminoactinomycin d 7 aad
Cell Cycle and Apoptosis Analysis via Flow Cytometry
Cell Viability Assay via Flow Cytometry
centrifuged at 500g for 5 min, resuspended in PBS,
and stained with 7-aminoactinomycin D (7AAD, Santa Cruz Biotechnology),
a DNA intercalating dye excluded from viable cells due to membrane
impermeability. The 7AAD was excited at 546 nm and analyzed at 656
nm. Only apoptotic and necrotic cells are stained by these dyes. After
incubation for 50 min in the dark at 37 °C, the cells were analyzed
by flow cytometry (CytoFlex, Beckman Coulter). The percentages of
cells stained with or without dyes were analyzed using the CytExpert
Software (Beckman Coulter).
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
